Under the Bamboo Forest of Naruto

Early the next morning, Ryuyu went to the Hokage's office to discuss the issue of Kusachi Yuta joining the Hokage's direct ANBU after graduation. But he didn't expect that as soon as Ryuyu brought it up, the Third Hokage directly agreed and asked Ryuyu to prepare it before.

None of the rhetoric came into play.

Looking at the smiling face of the Third Hokage, it was obvious that he had already prepared for this matter and was waiting for Liuyu to make this request. Liuyu couldn't help but secretly thought, "Old fox."

After achieving her goal, Ryūha stood up and exited the Hokage's office. Now she still had family affairs to deal with. After Minato Namikaze was killed in battle, the Third Hokage took over Minato's ANBU, but he chose to disband Minato's Shadow Guard.

Firstly, it is because Ryuyu is still responsible for handling the affairs of the clan, and there is no more time for her to serve as a guard like before. Secondly, except for Ryuyu, the remaining Shiranui Genma are not the same at all.

Iwashi is too weak and not qualified to serve as the Hokage's guard. After all, the current Third Hokage does not have the energy to train new people like Namikaze Minato.

Maybe when the three of them grow up in the future, they may serve as the Hokage's bodyguards again. After all, the only ones in the village who have the ability to teleport, apart from Ryūha, are the Flying Thunder God Formation of three people.

After the disbandment of the Shadow Guards, Liuyu, who no longer had the task of guarding the Hokage, became an ordinary jounin in the village. In addition to taking care of Naruto at home and training his clan brothers and sisters, he only occasionally went out to perform tasks. After all, now

The situation in the ninja world has gradually become peaceful, and the number of assassination and reconnaissance missions that require Ryūha has been reduced a lot.

When he went to talk to the Third Hokage about Kusachi Yuta joining the ANBU directly under the Hokage, the Third Hokage specifically told Ryūha that she would no longer have to carry out tasks assigned by Danzo in the future. When she is needed to perform tasks in the future, she will be

The Third Hokage personally issued it.

Perhaps the Sandaime also knew that Ryūha was quite busy now, so he no longer assigned any long-term missions to Ryūha. The only few missions he had were around the village.

...

In the courtyard, Liuyu was leaning on the railing, holding little Naruto in his arms, closing his eyes and concentrating. Suddenly, Liuyu opened his eyes and said softly: "Jiraiya-sama, since you are here, there is no need to hide."

As soon as Liu Yu finished speaking, a figure appeared on the corner of the wall. The person was tall, wearing a red outer coat, with brown clothes underneath, wearing wooden clogs, wearing armor-like equipment on both hands, and on his head.

Wearing a forehead protector with the word "oil" written on it. He has long white hair that reaches his waist, and there are red marks under his eyes. He is none other than Jiraiya, one of the Sannin of Konoha.

"Aha! You little girl is still so sharp!"

After climbing down from the courtyard wall, Jiraiya touched his head and said with an embarrassed look. As a Sannin of Konoha, it is indeed not a glorious thing to be able to hide his figure in front of a little girl.

"Jiraiya-sama, are you here to see this child this time?"

Liu Yu took her eyes away from Jiraiya and looked at the sleeping little Naruto in her arms and asked softly. She had also met Jiraiya in the past, but at that time Jiraiya came to visit Namikaze Minato.

Yes, there is not much interaction between the two.

After Minato succeeded as Hokage, Jiraiya spent most of his time traveling abroad to collect materials, so he was unable to catch up with the previous Nine-Tails Rebellion.

"This child must be Naruto!"

Looking at the yellow-haired baby in Ryūha's arms, Jiraiya asked softly. The Minato couple had decided on this name long ago. They used the name of the protagonist in his debut novel "The Legend of Strong Perseverance". This name is full of meaning.

Parents' expectations for their children. Jiraiya walked towards Liu Yu as he spoke, stretching out his hands to take Naruto from Liu Yu's arms.

Liuyu didn't resist and gently handed Naruto over.

"Wow------wow------"

Unexpectedly, Jiraiya had just picked up Naruto, and the sleeping little Naruto suddenly woke up and burst into tears. Seeing Jiraiya in a hurry, Liu Yu had no choice but to pick Naruto back up. It was strange to say that,

After Liu Yu brought Naruto back, Naruto immediately calmed down and soon fell asleep again with Liu Yu's comfort.

"Haha! It seems that I am not suitable for taking care of children! Xiao Liuyu, you are more experienced in this aspect."

Seeing this scene, Jiraiya couldn't help but laugh at himself.

Hearing what Jiraiya said, Liu Yu's heart trembled, and he couldn't help but recall the situation of taking care of his younger brothers and sisters in the orphanage in his previous life. It was so similar to how he is now. Thinking of this, Liu Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly, this is considered a reincarnation.

?

Seeing Liu Yu's sudden forced smile, Jiraiya Choji was confused and didn't know what was wrong with this girl.

"Jiraiya-sama, do you have anything else to do this time?" After a wry smile, Liu Yu brought the topic back to Jiraiya.

Liuyu's question made Jiraiya fall silent. After a long time, he said in a low voice: "No! The main reason I came back this time is to see this child. I can rest assured that you will take care of this child."

Jiraiya's duty is to find the legendary child of destiny and provide guidance for this child who affects the fate of the ninja world. Jiraiya once thought that Nagato, who had the Samsara Eye, whom he met in the Land of Rain, was the legendary child of prophecy.

After the news of the death of three people in the battle came, Jiraiya set his sights on Minato. However, Minato fell into the Nine-Tails Rebellion. These successive blows also made Jiraiya doubt the man who asked him to find the Son of Destiny.

The prophecy casts doubt.

Looking at Jiraiya's depressed look, Liu Yu said softly: "Jiraiya-sama, are you looking for the so-called son of prophecy?"

"Has Minato told you about this?"

Jiraiya wasn't too surprised when he heard Ryūyu ask this. He thought it was Minato who told Ryūyu about this. Ryūyu didn't deny it but continued: "Minato-sensei said before he died, 'He believes in Naruto.

I believe that Naruto is the child of prophecy in your mouth, and I believe that Naruto will prevent future disasters in the ninja world'"

When Jiraiya heard what Riuyu said, he didn't pay much attention. He just regarded it as his father's expectation for his son. Rather than saying that the child in front of him was the child of destiny, Jiraiya now would rather believe that Riuyu was the so-called child of destiny. After all,

In Jiraiya's opinion, Ryūha's talent is no less than Namikaze Minato.

Jiraiya came back this time not only to take a look at Minato's orphaned child, Naruto, but also to investigate Ryūyu, wanting to know if Ryūyu was the legendary child of destiny.

Seeing Jiraiya's nonchalant look, Liuyu didn't pay much attention. The trajectory of fate would eventually bring Naruto to Jiraiya. However, Liuyu didn't expect that Jiraiya would actually classify himself as the Son of Destiny.

among the candidates.

Naruto's identity as the Son of Destiny was determined the moment he was born, and his identity as Asura's reincarnation was destined to lead changes in the world.
